[collectd] I don't know the ASN type

2010-05-07 Thread Flyinvap
Hi,

I use collectd to poll devices with SNMP (~1000). I see this line very
often in logs (~15/second) :

  snmp plugin: I don't know the ASN type `5'

I would like to now wich host or data cause this warning. 

If we check in sources, snmp.c :

if ((vl-type == ASN_INTEGER)
  || (vl-type == ASN_UINTEGER)
  || (vl-type == ASN_COUNTER)
#ifdef ASN_TIMETICKS
  || (vl-type == ASN_TIMETICKS)
#endif
  || (vl-type == ASN_GAUGE))

As I understand, 5 is not an ASN_INTEGER, an ASN_UINTEGER, an
ASN_COUNTER, an ASN_TIMETICKS or a ASN_GAUGE but I don't know C so I
can't debug anymore :-(

Any idea ?

Regards.

Some hours later ... 5 is the value for ASN_NULL !

#define ASN_NULL((u_char)0x05)

asn1.h [1] from net-snmp define this constant. Some snmpgets return
null value. A tcpdump later, I found some oids not known by equipment
so null value is returned.

Is it possible to have oid included in message for this type log ? I
can be useful to find quickly the wrong data.

 Thanks for the prompt reply.  Before I head off into the documentation
 (which seems to be quite good indeed) can you tell me if there is a
 pre-defined recommended (tested) way of generating graphs from CSV
 files by the collectd team ?

  CSV files are not the preferred way. All software listed in [0] use rrd.
